A combinatorial mathematician in Norway: some personal reflections
In the paper, I 'rst try to give some impression of Norwegian contributions to combinatorics in the 20th century. This is followed by some remarks on my own combinatorial experiences. c © 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

متن کاملChallenges for QCD theory – some personal reflections –
At the LHC all processes are QCD ones, whether “signal” or “background”. In this review the frontiers of current QCD research are addressed, towards increased understanding, improved calculational precision, and role in potential future discoveries. Issues raised include the limits of perturbative QCD calculations and parton distribution usage, the nature of multiparton interactions, the impact...
متن کاملSoftware for Science: Some Personal Reflections
As computer hardware systems become more and more complex, software and tools lag more and more behind. This is especially true for scientific software that often demands high performance, and thus needs to take advantage of parallelisms, memory hierarchies and other software and systems. How do we help bridge this ever-increasing gap? This paper describes some of my experiences and thoughts re...
متن کاملTeaching (Political) Economic Geography: Some Personal Reflections
Teaching economic geography is not a matter of replicating textbook models. It requires engagement with the ever-changing global economy, which often puts the lie to existing theory. It demands that the teacher break down the economy into its major parts, in a way that students can grasp. This does not mean abandoning theory; on the contrary, it means getting beyond static exchange models to gr...
متن کاملCochlear implants and hearing aids: some personal and professional reflections.

And then he went on to his next patient. It took me a long time to realize that what he meant by “deaf” was not a condition that I would ever fully experience. He apparently used the term as a medical diagnostic label and not ...
